The Aspen Institute Program on Philanthropy and Social Innovation (PSI) seeks to inform and maximize the impact of these social sector actors through leadership development initiatives, convenings, and communications so that each can contribute to the good society at home and abroad. The program’s theory of change rests on the premise that if their leaders have clarity about their values, are collaborative in their approach to problem-solving, and are aware of the strategies and potential partnerships available to them, they are more likely to succeed in advancing the social good.

In Aspen, CO, Washington, DC, and New York, NY, PSI hosts convenings and seminars, such as the Aspen Philanthropy Group, Seminar for Mid-America Foundation CEOs, American Express Leadership Academy 2.0, and Artist-Endowed Foundation Leadership Forum.
